Enterprise development
Practical Action Consulting has been working in the field of manufacturing and small enterprise development for many years.
Working in this sector we seek to identify and overcome the constraints that limit the growth of manufacturing enterprises in less developed countries.
Our policy is to identify strategies that lead to increased productivity, profitability and employment opportunities for local manufacturers and provide poor men and women with access to improved products and services which result in and support sustainable livelihoods.
We offer consulting expertise in the following areas
-
